Release

Any release.

Cause

The value of the system property "glide.security.output.replacement.patterns" is set to "\$*\{=\$⁠{,\$*\[=\$⁠[".

This will add "$" into the JSON body in "concourse_settings.xml" and cause JSON Parse error.

It breaks the Navigator panel and Frame.

Resolution

Update the value of system property to a proper value like the following.

\$
*\{=\$⁠{,\$
*\[=\$⁠
